Don't make your users register. At least not to just access information.

In this case I'm not sure that's a bad idea.

- This is, or should be, a very motivated audience.

- The point of the site is as much advertising yourself as seeking a cofounder as searching the current offers.

- The data you enter when you register is pretty much the search criteria for cofounders.

People like to see what they're getting into before they give anything away, though. This applies as much to motivated startup founders as casual web browsers.

Bug Alert:

Once I uploaded the image into my profile, I cannot change it. It does not matter what I do: remove an existing image and upload new one, rename files before uploading, in the end, my profile shows the image I uploaded first time, regardless of what I try to upload now.

I just happened to glance at their privacy doc:

"We may provide information to service providers to help us bring you the services we offer. Specifically, we may use third parties to facilitate our business, such as to send email solicitations. In connection with these offerings and business operations, our service providers may have access to your personal information for use in connection with these business activities."

Email solicitations from third parties ? .. makes me real reluctant to sign up.

Hrm.

I've been writing notes and thinking about my idea for this exact domain and application name for many months now. Guess I'll have to register and see what you've done.

If you are so interested, you may consider talking to them about joining them?
